Happy Valentine’s Day!

If you take away all of the commercial hype about Valentine’s Day, I think it can be quite a nice day. Take a few moments to spread some love!

I hope you called your friends and family to tell them that you love them! Wore socks with pink and red hearts, and enjoy some delicious chocolates!

This was a perfect recipe- it had 2 servings (so there were no seconds to worry about)! Although if Sam wasn’t going to eat his portion, I was willing to “take one for the team” and eat it for breakfast tomorrow…with some ice cream on top!

Lots of love and hugs to all of our readers- thank you so much for sticking around!!!

Preheat oven to 425ºF. While the oven is heating up grease 2 small ramekins (size: 4 oz) with butter. Then dust the inside of the ramekins with 1 tsp of flour (1/2 tsp for each ramekin).

Add the eggs into the bowl of a stand mixer. Slowly, add the powdered sugar while mixing the ingredients.

In a double boiler, melt your chocolate and add the half and half. Once the chocolate is melted, add the ground espresso. Mix it well before adding it to the egg-sugar mixture. While mixing the chocolate-egg-sugar mixture, add the vanilla. Finally, slowly add the flour. Once all of the ingredients are mixed together, divide the mixture between the ramekins.

Bake for 7 minutes. Remove from the oven, and allow them to rest for about 5-10 minutes. Then tip them out of the ramekins onto your serving dish. Sift some powdered sugar on top for decoration. Feel free to add a scoop of vanilla ice cream with this delicious treat!
